http://egnog.blogspot.com/2007/08/where-on-earth-are-we.html
Sunday, September 23, 2007. Where on Earth are we? Right now we are in London, UK. We decided to bring our Christmas trip forward to fill in the gap between making our way back to Perth and our upcoming India adventure. Anyway, we are here now. We have had some fun weeks here, I spent my birthday in Geneva as a guest of Oly's mum who recently has moved there from Koh Samui. For some reason we did not take any photos, we will have to go again one day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). You don't need to ...

http://egnog.blogspot.com/2007/10/india-day-6-mcleod-ganj-ojg.html
Saturday, October 13, 2007. India Day 6: McLeod Ganj (OJG). After 10 minutes, one monkey made a quick appearance, I guess that would have to do. The hotel manager who is a good friend of John's let us change rooms from one that had WiFi. To one that had WiFi. So first thing in the morning I moved all our stuff from one room to the other. I say 'I' and not 'we', as Em had been up sporadically during the night with her bad tum, and was still feeling sick. No more Tibetan soup for her! Another given in the ...

Friday, July 13, 2007. Day 165: Coral Bay - Kalbarri. Kalbarri is gorgeous, Lovely clear blue sea and white sandy beaches. It helped that it was gloriously sunny too.

Oly & Em's Ozventure: India Day 1: Delhi
http://egnog.blogspot.com/2007/10/india-day-1-delhi.html
Monday, October 08, 2007. India Day 1: Delhi. Beds in India are considerably shorter than those you would find in the western world, plus they can have a wooden footboard that is flush with the mattress which, during the night, if you venture onto it, can be rather uncomfortable. Nontheless, we did sleep rather well and felt very refreshed when we met John on the balcony of the Hotel Relax for breakfast. Our next visit was to the Indian Baha'i Temple. The Temple has 27 free-standing "petals" clad in marb...

Thursday, July 12, 2007. Day 164: Exmouth - Coral Bay. We were picked up in a rickety old mini van at 7:30AM by Ningaloo Reef Dreaming. And spent the next 30 minutes driving to the beach where we got a dinghy to the boat. After our "how to snorkel with a whale shark. To off top our day their van broke down and had to get a landcruiser to push start it. No one can guarantee a whale shark spotting, however Ningaloo Reef Dreaming could have been more organised with keeping us occupied while we waited. Day 1...

Oly & Em's Ozventure: September 2007
http://egnog.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 25, 2007. Anything your PC can do my Mac can do better. I have finally come over to the Mac side and have been offline for a while with the change plus internet access has been sparodic, especially in the US. Also, I have only just managed to get access to my address book and old emails (really sorry to all those that have emailed me and I haven't replied) but I am getting back on track and will be in the present and not sifting through the past sooner than you can say "Steve Jobs".

http://egnog.blogspot.com/2007/10/india-day-0-london-hong-kong-perth.html
Sunday, October 07, 2007. India Day 0: London - Hong Kong - Perth - Singapore - New Delhi (OJG). Well, we are back with a new adventure, this time in India! Our flight to India was a bit of a crazy one as some of you already know. In short, we flew to India via Australia. On the plus side, this allowed us to drop off our UK bags and pick up our India ones. On the negative side, it meant that we would have 4 separate. Flights and be in the air for 30 hours over a 3 day period. Above these narrow streets a...

Oly & Em's Ozventure: India Day 3: Shimla
http://egnog.blogspot.com/2007/10/india-day-3-shimla.html
Wednesday, October 10, 2007. India Day 3: Shimla. The last two days we have woken up at 2AM. This gave us plenty of time this morning to contemplate our new means of bathing using a bucket and a jug. We thought that by helping each other to wash it would be easier. It actually took longer and, as the night had been very cold, it was freezing. We won't be doing that again! The main area of Shimla. Gulab jamons are fried balls of dough made from flour and milk served with sugar syrup flavoured with rosewat...
